Are the stuffy professor and the, I’m guessing, ‘cool’ musician going to reflect any conflict between proper form and creative interpretation? I’ve always been a little confused about how much of musicianship is ‘natural’ talent and how much is learned. Also, as a history student, I am interested in the period/context in which the sonata form was developed and/or standardized, but I wouldn’t want going into that to take away from the force of the story.

It sounds like this is maybe intended for a primary or secondary ed music classroom environment, given the whole “handout” element…

I’m wondering, though– since this project is “born digital,” as they say, might it be more effective to do this as an embedded video within a webpage that serves the purpose of a “handout?”

The project could reach a lot more people this way, could be something that could be assigned as homework rather than requiring class time… Plus, with the number of school districts cutting music programs, putting music learning materials in a format that’s distance-learning friendly seems… I dunno. Like doing the most good for the most people?
